2/23/2015 PROFILE UPDATE: It's been a while since I've been on here. I post to a few different sites, and on one of them I received a very abusive and negative review that had no professional criticism of my work in it at all and it kind of turned me off to writing for over a year. I'm slowly starting to inch back into it, primarily picking up with some works in progress. Most of my recent time writing has been devoted to working on an interactive story for an app (check out the app called Episode). I've also made a drastic change to my educational goals and changed my major from English Education to Criminal Justice. Hopefully this new career path will give my crime drama stories a new depth. Who knows... At the very least, I am back on this site to read stories for now.

10/9/2013 PROFILE UPDATE: I really like the cover image option that FF introduced a while back. Until I get around to producing cover images that I am satisfied with, I've got default covers for each fandom. There are only a small handful of stories with cover images specifically tailored to the story, but more and more will be uploaded as I finish them.

2/19/2013 PROFILE UPDATE: I have passed the 50 story mark! Between the two sites (FanFiction and FictionPress), I have published 53 stories to date! I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t proud of myself. I think I’m going to print, organize, and have Staples bind those first 50 into an actual book for me to keep. Obviously with the inclusion of fanfic pieces in there, I can’t publish them for a profit, but I do want to bring them all together into an easily accessible collection.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED: Since I’ve started posting stories, I’ve had a few people question the heading setup I use. I wanted to explain it in more detail, so you know what you’re looking at. Some variation of this appears at the beginning of every one of my stories.

A/N: This is my author’s notes section. Anything I feel like you should know before reading my story, I put right here.

DISCLAIMER: For FanFiction, the disclaimer is usually stated as “I do not own any of the characters or ideas created by . I borrowed them for the entertainment and amusement of my audience.” For FictionPress, it’s usually “No disclaimer. One hundred percent mine.”

SUMMARY: When I first started writing, I actually tried coming up with summaries, but I have since found that I like pulling out one sentence or two from the actual story that I feel sums up the story as a whole.

SPOILERS: This is used for significant spoilers for a movie, book, TV episode, etc. This will only appear on FanFiction stories. Hopefully, though, by the time anyone starts reading fanfics, they’ve already seen the movie, TV episode, or read the book and the spoiler alert won’t be needed.

GENRE: Easy enough. I try to relegate my stories in general genres (Drama, Romance, Comedy or Horror), though I may get a little more specific if I need to.

RATING: Despite the fact that FanFiction and FictionPress have a rating system, I always use movie ratings here. I love movies and I have a pretty solid idea on what each rating encompasses.

DEDICATION: Occasionally I may write stories as gifts for friends, or write stories that were inspired by individuals close to me. In those instances, obviously I will dedicate the story to them.

DATE: This tended to be the most confusing. This is the date I complete work on the story; not the date the story takes place.

10/5/2012 PROFILE UPDATE: I figured since two years had passed since I first posted my profile on here, I should probably update it. It's not like anything has actually changed in my likes and dislikes and how they influence my writing.

Now that I have been writing for a few years, I've got a better idea of what, specifically, I enjoy writing about. I tend to prefer writing fanfiction over original fiction, though I do have a few pieces of original fiction that I am presently working on that I hope to publish someday (“publish” as in with paper, a cover and a real binding with a price tag and everything).

My favorite genre to write is crime drama. I tend to draw my inspiration from my favorite TV shows, but since I gave up watching TV last year, I have found my inspiration dwindling in that respect. It'll give me a chance to broaden my horizons, though. My favorite genre to read has always been fantasy and I hope someday to branch out into that arena.

I typically like writing one-shot stories, but if I get a decent enough idea, I can usually take it farther than I anticipate, which has been the case with a couple of completed stories here.

Be sure to check out my stories on both Fanfiction.net and Fictionpress.com. I use the same username on both.

An AU of the events toward the end of 28 Weeks Later featuring the character of Sergeant Doyle. The rage virus has gotten loose again. Will Doyle be able to protect and defend a rag-tag group of survivors who have been given one more chance to live? Watch for Language and Violence.

The way the other man had phrased it, he almost could've tricked himself into thinking that he was sitting down for a friendly game of chess, or some other harmless match. This was no friendly game. In fact, Steve thought, as he reached forward with shaking hands to make the next move, this was probably the most important game of his life.

Clint believes something is wrong with him. On Asgard Loki has taken ill & tells Thor that his and Barton's problems may have the same solution. With Barton's worst fear coming true, can the team trust that this isn't some ploy by Loki? Warnings: language and violence. Follows No Good Deed - Rock/Hard Place.

Clint copes with his actions during the movie in the only way he knows how: burying everything. But his friends see the damage he's doing to himself and intervene, ultimately resolving some of their own issues as well. Was a one-shot but has been continued to include all members of the Avengers...

A short Avengers oneshot about the old man that stood up and refused to acknowledge Loki's authority in Germany. Has appearances of Captain America/Steve Rogers and Loki. Rated T for allusions to the Holocaust (non-explicit, pretty vague)

Phil's relationship with his cellist girlfriend was more serious than he ever let on. They lived in stolen moments and relied on the stars aligning just right, between her concert schedule and his mysterious line of work. She was the one he opened up to about his life. She learned why, at a young age, he needed a reason to believe in heroes. And then he became one.

AU. Because Loki's possession of one of the sharpest minds in SHIELD wasn't easy. In fact, it barely worked at all. A better take on Clint's forced defection, his return to the Avengers, and the aftermath. Contains whump, language, torture, and all the horrors of a POW. *COMPLETE*

His one saving grace was his aim. Sharp, deadly, and merciless. He's SHIELD's weapon to wield. A battering ram, made to be splintered and broken. The minute he ceases to be useful, he's gone. Clint/Natasha

Not wanting to take up his teammates' time with all of us questions about history/pop culture/etc, Steve keeps a notebook full of all of his questions, observations, and other things he wants to look up later when he gets a chance. Steve learns about Sarah Palin, the Jersey Shore, Youtube, and how to successfully troll the Avengers.

Repost/Re-edit: Mac goes to have dinner with Ella McBride, everything starts off well however when she starts to give into her most erotic and sadistic fantasies Mac becomes her unwilling victim. Warning scenes of mild through disturbing sexual assault/torture

Its really hard to play it cool with a broken wrist and a dislocated shoulder, coupled with an unconscious Captain America who may or may not be bleeding to death internally against the wall of a subway tunnel. Lots of random stream of consciousness/nervous babble from Tony :D No slash, just bromance! Rated for language

Agent Barton was sent to Russia to take out an assassin known as The Black Widow. When he starts to question his orders, he offers her an option to come with him instead, but before she can make up her mind, all hell breaks loose and they're fighting for their lives. One Shot.

How Phil Coulson came to be such a fan of Captain America- the Capt isn't Phil's only hero. Shamelessly sentimental oneshot. Set several years before, and during the events of the film. Rated T for mild adult themes. Feedback welcome.

"Do you know what its like to be unmade?" "You know that I do." Natasha knows more than most what its like to know exactly who you are only to have it yanked away. Clint made a different call on his mission to kill her, and now she has been unmade. But he hasn't left her to drown. He will help remake her even if she doesn't make it easy on him. One-shot.

He turned his head and Thor noticed for the first time the purple bruises under his eyes and his abnormally pale skin. As he looked at his brother, a drop of blood traced a path from the corner of Loki's mouth down his chin and dripped onto his pants. NO SLASH. ONESHOT.

In the real world, good did not always win, there was no such thing as magic and fairy godmothers, happy endings were rare and evil was rarely as easily identifiable as in tales. In the real world, villains rarely ever wore black, unless it was tailored and Armani.

Less than a month ago, they saved the world from a hostile alien invasion (aka Loki's temper tantrum). Now they face their biggest challenge yet in getting their archer to realize he is worth saving before they lose him for good. Or how the Avengers became more than just a dysfunctional ticking time bomb.

Hawkeye and Bullseye have a history that Clint hadn't thought about in years. But now that the Avengers are public, Bullseye has come out of hiding and wants to make sure Clint knows it. Clint-centric, but team fic. Rated for language and violence.

Set immediately post-movie. Clint has a debt to pay, one that's soaked in blue and alive with guilt. A serious take on the aftermath of the movie, implicitly realistic. A Memorial Day thank you to our service men and women for the sacrifices they make. *Warning: Strong Subject Material. Read Responsibly*

Formerly "Natasha Romanoff: Agent of SHIELD?" How did the Black Widow end up at S.H.I.E.L.D? What kind of person was she before Iron Man 2 and The Avengers? I have no clue, but it's fun to guess. M rating for violence in later chapters.

He could've killed her, when they fought on the helicarrier. And what if he did? Like Loki planned? - "But there's no barter, no end to the bargain, and she's pretty sure she won't get to see the light at the end of the tunnel. She'll be dead by then."

Trish Wellington’s life was like a fairytale, complete with money and good looks, an evil stepmother and her very own Prince Charming. It’s a pity no one ever told her that there’s no such thing as a happily ever after. Set during the end of "Gasp".

How long have you been in love with her?" Shane asked. Henry's eyes automatically traveled to Trish, "For as long as I can remember," he said. Shane followed his gaze and frowned, shaking his head. "No, not her. Abby."

It doesn't matter if she and Jimmy get married and have babies, because Abby will never forget you. You loved her and once upon a time, when things were simpler she loved you, too. Spoilers for Episode 13, "Sigh".

So, you and Henry. You've been friends for a long time, you must have hooked up at least once, right?" asked the young blond with an air of knowing, as though it was unfathomable that the two had never passed into the realm of romantic.
